Biggest Stumps
Much the same way Vancouver Island is known for its giant old-growth trees, it's also unfortunately home to some of the biggest stumps. 90% of the valley bottom old-growth, where the largest trees grow and richest biodiversity resides, has been logged from the island. Stumps here have been found measuring 15ft in diameter and nearly 50ft around. The oldest stump to be dated in BC was from a tree 1,835 years old.
